[digi4545]

Hi all , i was looking asus gtx 970 , but because of v ram issue i cannot decide to go with it or not , i am looking for maximum 1440p gaming . also i heard like nvidia has released some of the latest driver which can solve the v-ram issue of gtx 970 , i wanna know that is it true ? or just a rumour.
also when will be the next gtx 70's gpu will be released , is here will be any gpu like gtx 1070....lol.
please advice and give suggestion about any driver release.

thank u

The so called Vram "issue" cannot be fixed with a driver update.

A driver can't fix something that specifically designed and manufactured directly in the hardware of the card. The next series will likely be sometime next year so I doubt you want to wait that long. I recommend just saving a bit more for a 980.

gtx 980 is out of my budget

Even with this 'VRAM' issue, I decided to bite the bullet and buy a 970 and don't regret it one bit

Every game I have at moment (Besides AC:Unity which gets about 45-50FPS at 1440p) runs at 1440p (custom resolution) maxed out with 60fps+

pretty nice OC too, 3.9ghz on mem & Boost 1400 on core

So close to breaking 10K on 3DMark.. CPU holding me back now. http://www.3dmark.com/fs/4457110

If you really want a new GPU go for it!

but what about future proof , as games will be more demanding in next 3 to 4 years in terms of memory usage

You made a sound decision, that 3.5Gb issue has been blown out of all proportion, the GTX970 won masses of awards well before that 'problem' was discovered.
Enjoy the card, mate.

If you are going to resort to that line of thought then you can never buy a card as no card is future proof and there will always be better ones in the future.
